A great deal of people on a forum for people who claim to enjoy reading and writing but somehow can't spare any time for the first.
Very strange, isn't it?
I officially bags the following fanfic for sporking as soon as I can manage (and as soon as I get Permission...)

Do I need to do anything else apart from editing the Unclaimed/Claimed Badfic pages...?
Oh lord, is this one a doozy. Canon replacement (the author even says so right off the bat), temporal distortions, it... really must be read to be believed. I MST'd it once.

Please limit the repeat posts for showing badfic and claiming badfic. Out of the first five threads at the top of this page, only one is not directly badfic related.
While we are an organisation that is dedicated to fanfiction and the sporking of badfic, we also like to have conversations sometimes instead of being lambasting with only threads that are claiming fic or showing off badfic that no one is going to act on besides going 'oh, wow, that is a most terrible fanfiction, my good fellow! I dare say, I believe I feel by blood boiling just from the actof bestowing my vision towards the act of reading it's summary, by jove!"
In short: Please guys, stop with the constant badfic threads when it can go on another thread that's already up at the top, it shoves everything else off and makes it hard to do anything more engaging than going 'MY EYES, MY POOR EYES'.
I didn't see any badfic-claiming-related threads! Many apologies...

It happens everywhere.
I once was at a book fair that had a cafeteria. At the entrance of the cafeteria there was a sign "no books beyond this point" (so you don't smudge the books you haven't paid for yet, I guess). There were some people who had taken their books beyond that point. I remarked to them how brave they were to pick up books when they couldn't read.
